Provisions applying on termination of lease
359
1
This section applies for the purposes of this Part if a lease is terminated.
2
If, with the consent of the lessor, the lessee of a building remains in possession of the building after the termination without a new lease being granted to him the lease is treated as continuing so long as the lessee remains in possession.
3
If on the termination a new lease is granted to the lessee as a result of the exercise of an option available to him under the terms of the first lease, the second lease is treated as a continuation of the first.
4
If on the termination the lessor pays a sum to the lessee in respect of a building comprised in the lease, the lease is treated as if it had come to an end by surrender in consideration of the payment.
5
If on the termination—
a
another lease is granted to a different lessee, and
b
in connection with the transaction that lessee pays a sum to the person who was the lessee under the first lease,
the two leases are to be treated as if they were the same lease which had been assigned by the lessee under the first lease to the lessee under the second lease in consideration of the payment.
